Angel Reese Calls Out Jill Biden Over Iowa WH Invitation

Over the weekend the Louisiana State University women's basketball team won a hard fought battle over the University of Iowa in a championship final fraught with racial tension. 

LSU star player Angel Reese, who took the brunt of the media bashing, calls out First Lady Jill Biden for suggesting Iowa also be invited to the White House to celebrate the championship win...

Angel referred to the invitation as a joke and joined a teammate asking if they could celebrate at Michelle Obama's house instead.

Which prompted a response from Jill Biden's Press Secretary

The First Lady loved watching the NCAA women's basketball championship game alongside young student athletes and admires how far women have advanced in sports since the passing of Title IX.

Her comments in Colorado were intended to applaud the historic game and all women athletes. She looks forward to celebrating the LSU Tigers on their championship win at the White House.
